Samenvatting

The Canyon Lux is a cross-country bike that excels in efficiency and speed, with a design that balances race weight and trail bike handling. Its suspension performance is highly efficient, offering a responsive and sporty ride, though some reviews note a firmer suspension tune that may not suit all tastes. The bike's geometry and component spec are praised for enhancing climbing and acceleration, but some models may feel less confident on technical descents.

Pros
  • Highly efficient suspension performance

  • Excellent climbing and acceleration

  • Responsive and sporty handling

  • Good value for the component spec

  • Practical and well-engineered frame details

Cons
  • Firm suspension may not suit all riders

  • Less confidence-inspiring on technical descents

  • Some models have a cluttered bar layout

  • Gripshift on certain models undermines control

  • Long reach with slack seat tube can make sizing difficult

Key Quotes
Quite possibly the fastest cross country race bike on the market
MBR logoMBR
Canyon's Lux CF SL 8.0 Race is a super high value and blisteringly quick cross-country race bike that can also take some rapid trail riding in its stride.
off.road.cc logooff.road.cc
Realistically, it's better to look at the Lux Trail as modern cross-country bike rather than trying to pull it into the downcountry pool.

Canyon Lux Trail CF8 review

jan 2022 · Guy Kesteven

Is Canyon’s half new and half old Lux Trail CF8 the full package when it comes to downcountry mountain biking?

Hoogtepunten
  • Excellent AXS wireless component spec for the money

  • Benchmark DT Swiss carbon wheel and Maxxis tire team

  • Combined suspension lockout

  • Stretched straight-line stability

  • Double big bottle space

  • Super neat chain keeper

  • Tidy steering lock stopper

  • Tool free wheel removal

Dieptepunten
  • Under leveraged shock is too stiff

  • Overly linear suspension feel once moving

  • Tangible power loss when pedaling

  • Excessive seat tube height restricts size options

  • Long reach needs a shorter stem/steeper seat angle

  • Harsh bar feel

  • Direct buy only

Field Test: 2022 Canyon Lux Trail - A Revised Racer

dec 2021 · Henry Quinney

Is a new front triangle enough to move a more traditional XC bike into the downcountry category?

Hoogtepunten
  • Excellent value

  • 'Traditional' pedaling position will appeal to those who don't like steep seat angles

  • Chain guide and bar rotation limiter are well executed

Dieptepunten
  • Not particularly confidence inspiring on the descents

  • Long reach with slack seat tube can make sizing difficult

  • Heavy considering the spec

2022 Canyon Lux, Trail Bike?

nov 2021

The Canyon Lux Trail CF 8 suspension is firm, fast, and freakin' fun but the geometry is too rooted in its XC-Race roots to be fairly marketed as a proper trail bike.

Hoogtepunten
  • Excellent rear suspension performance and efficiency

  • Excellent climbing, dreamy on technical climbs

  • Lightweight frame (sub-2000g)

  • Clean and seamless integration of suspension linkage

  • Two usable in-frame water bottles

  • AXS drivetrain works very well

  • AXS Reverb dropper post is excellent and easy to remove

Dieptepunten
  • Long seat mast limits dropper post insertion, reduces fun in rough terrain

  • Under-spec brakes (Level) not sufficient for trail riding

  • Head angle (67.5°) too steep for aggressive descending

  • Short wheelbase and steep geometry limit descending capability

  • Chain guide with oversized bolt unnecessary

  • Stock grips, saddle, bar, and chainring not suitable

  • Requires component upgrades to be enjoyable on technical trails

The New Canyon Lux Trail is Not Simply a Lux with a Longer Fork

aug 2021 · Travis Engel

Most brands just add travel to their XC bikes to make a trail version, but the Canyon Lux Trail has an entirely new front triangle.

Review | The 2020 Canyon Lux CF SL 8.0 Is A Near-Perfect XC Race Bike

dec 2019

Adorned with 29in wheels and 100mm of rear wheel travel, the Lux is Canyon's super light, full suspension XC speedster. Brand new for 2019, the latest generation Lux has been completely re-engineered with a new carbon fibre chassis that shares very little in common with the old model. Read on for the full review.

Hoogtepunten
  • The lightweight, practical and spacious frame design

  • Fantastic power transfer

  • Razor-sharp handling

  • Love the trick Quixle rear axle!

Dieptepunten
  • Dual lockout creates a very stiff, awkward lever throw

  • The SID fork isn't the most supple performer

  • The unloveable Selle Italia saddle
